Apartment heart of the city Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartment heart of the city on Dosud Street, you immediately understand why this place has such an incredible location score. I mean, you’re literally steps away from everything that makes Split worth visiting — Diocletian’s Palace, the waterfront promenade, those winding stone streets that tourists spend hours getting lost in. The building itself has that Mediterranean charm you’d expect, nothing flashy, but it fits perfectly into the old town’s character.

The Location Magic

Honestly, the location here is almost unfair to other hotels. You can roll out of bed and be at the palace walls in about two minutes, maybe three if you stop for coffee. The Riva waterfront is just as close, and you know what? That matters when you’re carrying shopping bags or when your feet are tired from exploring. Couples absolutely love it here — and I get why, because there’s something romantic about being able to wander back to your place through those ancient streets after dinner.

The Apartment Experience

This four-star apartment setup gives you way more space than a typical hotel room would. The kitchen is actually functional — not just a mini-fridge and microwave situation — which means you can grab fresh ingredients from the Green Market (it’s practically around the corner) and make breakfast without paying hotel prices. The whole place feels like someone’s well-appointed city flat rather than a sterile accommodation, if that makes sense.

What Makes It Work

The real genius of this place is how it balances being right in the action without the noise that usually comes with central locations. The street is busy enough to feel alive but not so crazy that you can’t sleep. You’re close enough to hear the evening buzz from the palace area, but the space itself stays surprisingly quiet. Plus, having your own space means you can come and go as you please — no lobby small talk when you’re rushing out to catch the sunset from Marjan Hill.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.1 rating isn’t just about the location, though that’s obviously a huge part of it. It’s about having a proper base in one of Croatia’s most beautiful cities without feeling like you’re staying in a tourist bubble. You can walk to the fish market in the morning, spend the day island-hopping from the nearby ferry terminal, then come back to your own space to regroup before heading out for dinner. The combination of independence and prime location is pretty hard to beat, especially in a city where every extra block from the center really does make a difference.

Best hotels in Split blend rooftop plunge pools, sea-view balconies, and Dalmatian tasting menus.

    This apartment was truly the highlight of my stay in Split. It has a PERFECT location in the old town and had all the amenities needed for my 6-night stay. It is charming and accessible. The hostess was super helpful giving all the needed details and suggesting names of restaurants and points of interest. Split is a lovely city, made more beautiful with a comfortable accommodation like this.
